Chapter 08: Victory or Defeat

[KND Moonbase, Control Room]

(("THIS IS GONNA GET GREASY!))

Kuki gasped in shock as Long Haul/Mushi charged.
Bluestreak also charged and struggled against the Constructicon, preventing it from CRUSHING Kuki.

"KUKI!, GET BACK HERE!" shouted Wally

Kuki finally broke from her shock and ran back.
they watched as Bluestreak and Long Haul Struggled, almost like "Pro-Wrestlers"

from within Long Haul's head...Mushi got a CRUEL idea.

(("why so SILENT, Autobot?...don't got nothin' to say?")) began Mushi

Bluestreak was silent.

(("oh, THAT'S RIGHT...you can't talk!"))

Mushi snickered.

(("oh, well...maybe it's better that way.
you probably have an ugly voice, why ELSE would the Autobots "fail" to fix you?, HA! HA!"))

Bluestreak growled, some liquid escaping his optic.

"heh-heh, GOOD.
that got him, Keep it up." muttered Long Haul to Mushi

(("your an EMBARRASSMENT to the entire Autobot Faction, BLUESTREAK!
no wonder the other Autobots left you behind, THEY JUST WANTED TO BE RID OF YOU!"))

Bluestreak yelled out in rage, wheezing a bit he attacked Long Haul furiously, which the Constructicon easily blocked.

"li..ar." said Bluestreak, his voice still broken-up

Long Haul grabbed Bluestreak by his head and slammed him against the ground, causing a slight tremor.
as the Autobot lay on the ground, groaning...Long Haul balled his servos into fists, then protruded metal spikes.

(("let's put this poor excuse for an autobot "out-of-his-misery...")) said Mushi

"Yessss..." agreed Long Haul

the Decepticon began to relentlessly pound at Bluestreak each blow made the Autobot cry out in pain even more.

"STOP IT, YOUR HURTING HIM!" shrieked Kuki, near tears

(("NEVEEEEEEEER!)) shouted Mushi and Long Haul, together

Cree narrowed her eyes.
the teenager then ran towards Bluestreak.

"CREE, WAIT!" exclaimed Abby

Cree climbed up Bluestreak's shoulder, doing her best to hold on.
she then climbed to the autobot's head and knocked on his helmet.

"bluestreak!
bluestreak, PLEASE...if you can hear me, OPEN UP!"

Bluestreak made groaning noises.

"I can help you fight!
just...do what Long Haul did and LET ME IN!"

Bluestreak struggled.
Cree heard transforming noises...then, a hatch opened.

Cree ran inside, letting the hatch close behind her.

"CREE!" shouted Abby

Long Haul continued to punch at Bluestreak.
then, the Autobot's optics suddenly flashed.

Long Haul threw another punch...but, Bluestreak caught it in his palm.
Long Haul struggled, but Bluestreak slowly got up...then, finally struck at him with his own fist.

the Decepticon stagger backwards.
Bluestreak took a fighting stance, glaring at Long Haul.

(("Round TWO...")) Said Cree's voice

Mushi gritted her teeth, screaming in her throat.
Long Haul charged and tried to attack Bluestreak...but, the autobot easily countered him.

he gripped his chestplate, lifted him over him then, tossed him into a nearby wall...which dazed both HIM and Mushi.

(("HA!, You see that!
THAT is why "I" am "Numbuh Eleven!")) exclaimed Cree

Long Haul got up, and CHARGED after Bluestreak/Cree.
from within his head, Cree just smirked at the Decepticon.

she then raised up her fist (which made Bluestreak do the same)

"hey, MUSHI..." began Cree

"HAMMER TIME!"

Cree/Bluestreak slammed his fist HARD against Long Haul's head as he charged at them the powerful punch, combined with Long Haul's own speed pretty much made the IMPACT "effective"

the chamber inside his head vibrated violently...which knocked Mushi around.

(("OW!...HEY, QUIT IT!")) exclaimed Mushi

Long Haul's fell down, his hatch opened as well Mushi fell out of the Decepticon's head, tumbling down

"AAAAAHHH!"

Mushi screamed as she fell down to the ground.
Cree then emerged from Bluestreak and leapt down stealthly to her.

the rest of Sector V joined her.
Mushi growled angrily at Long Haul, gritting her teeth

"GET UP YOU STUPID HULK OF JUNK!, GET UP!" shouted Mushi at Long Haul

Long Haul just groaned in pain.
Mushi angrily kicked him...then, shrieked out in pain.

"FRAAAGG!" cursed Mushi

Cree Smirked.

"time to put you to bed, you little brat." said Cree

Mushi growled.

"I don't think so, TEENAGER."

Mushi reached into her pocket and pulled out a device: a Transwarp Drive.

"LATER, LOSERS!"

Mushi activated the drive, charging herself with energy.
in a blinding flash, she vanished...obviously teleporting to an unknown location.

"crud...I hate it when they run away."

(("Sector V!...what's going on back there!")) said Rachel over Bluestreak's InterCOMM/Radio

"Oh...N-Nothing.
we just encountered some "difficulties", we're ready now." said Abby

(("GOOD.
then, head on over to the console..."))

Abby ran over to the consol of the Control Room.

(("now, enter in THESE coordnants."))

"got it."

(("ELEVEN...TWENTY-SEVEN...NINETEEN...NINTEY-EIGHT..."))

Abby typed in HALF of the code.

"okay...I got it."

(("TWELVE...SIX...TWO-THOUSAND...TWO."))

Abby typed in the last of the code.

"okay, got it."

(("GOOD, then you SHOULD have full access to the base.
all you have to do now is DEACTIVATE Lockdown Mode."))

"okay..."

Abby typed something in.

(("LOCKDOWN MODE DEACTIVATED.")) said a Computer Voice

at that moment, all the bright lights came on and, the metal blast doors on the doors and windows shifted away.

"WE'RE CLEAR!" exclaimed Abby

(("Exellent!
now, as long as your THERE: tell everyone to head to the Portal, the Escape Pods must all be GONE by now."))

"Yes, SIR, Supreme Leader, SIR."

Abigail activated the KND Moonbase Speaker System.

"ATTENTION ALL OPERATIVES!, ATTENTION ALL OPERATIVES!
in case the Escape Pods have all been ejected, PROCEED TO THE MOONBASE LOBBY, IMMEDIATLY!

REPEAT: PROCEED TO THE MOONBASE LOBBY, IMMEDIATLY there is a Portal there that can transport you to saftey."

Abby deactivated the COMM.

"that outta do it."

just then, a familure voice spoke on Bluestreak's radio.

(("MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, SAM!
all escape pods have successfuly made it to earth, and the 'Cons are retreating.")) said Prowl

(("Good work, Prowl.
now, Transwarp outta there!")) said Sam

(("Roger."))

"So...does this mean we're done?" asked Wally

(("Negative, Number Four.
there are STILL operatives trapped in the Moonebase."))

"yeah, and Vinnie said he's going to Overload the Moonbase's power supply..." said Abigail

(("overloa-...SCRAP!. that explains why the Decepticons Jets are retreating."))

"Sa-?"

"ABBY, you have to get everyone evacuated NOW!
it sounds like Vinnie is trying to do the SAME THING he tried to do at the Arctic Base..."))

"Maybe we could stop him, if we hurr-"

"NO TIME!, the portal I generated is getting WEAKER.
just get back to the Lobby and escort as many Operatives to safety as you CAN!"

Abby sighed sharply.

"alright, Sam...understood."

Sector V, Cree and Bluestreak all ran back to the lobby as fast as they could.

[Elsewhere]

Vinnie blasted a door down and walked into the Generator Room of the KND Moonbase.

"STOP!, YOU CA-"

Vinnie shot at the KND Guards calously, not even bothering to look at them.
the Purple Armored Teen approached the generator and smirked evily.

he then summoned his arm-mounted Fusion Cannon and opened up a compartment in it.
Vinnie then reached into his armor and pulled out a cartridge that contained shards of DARK ENERGON.

"finally...after YEARS of fighting these blasted kids.
the Teen Ninjas shall AT LAST!, achieve victory over the Kids Next Door, ONCE AND FOR ALL!"

Vinnie loaded the Dark Energon Cartridge into his Fusion Cannon, empowering it.
he aimed his Cannon and charged it (which took a little longer than normal for some reason)

"say: "goodbye"...kids next door, FOREVER!"

[Meanhile, at the Lobby]

"GO! GO! GO!"

Sevtor V and Bluestreak stood near the ever shrinking Portal as they helped various KND Operatives get thru to the other side.

"SAM!...how's it looking?" said Abby to Bluestreak

(("doing PRETTY well...")) Began Sam

(("but, the Portal is STILL getting weaker by the second, I fear it could collapse at ANY TIME"))

"we'll do our be-"

KA-BOOOOOOOOOM!

suddenly, the ground began to shake violently.
so violently...that it even knocked over Bluestreak.

(("ABBY!
ABBY, WHAT WAS THAT!"))

Abby groaned as she and the others got up.

"I...I don't know.
some kind of explosion of some sor-"

just then, everyone heard Vinnie's voice ring out on the Moonbase Speaker.

(("HA! HA! HA! HA! HAAAAAAAAA!
you are TOO LATE, Kids Next Door...your DESTRUCTION is at hand!, HA! HA! HAAAAAAAA!"))

Bluestreak's alarms suddenly went off.

(("DANGER!, DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!")) exclaimed Bluestreak via a Soundbyte

(("SCRAP!, Vinnie must of succeeded in overloaded the Base's Power Supply...")) said Sam

"wha-what does that mean!" exclaimed Kuki

"It mean that the entire Moonbase is going to blow in a few short moments!" Exclaimed Hoagie

(("Number Two is correct...everyone needs to get thru the portal, NOW!")) shouted Sam

"alright, EVERYONE INSIDE!" shouted Nigel

Bluestreak grabbed as many kids as he could (including Sector V and Cree)
and, immediatly leapted thru the portal and landed inside teh Unnderground NEST base.

once inside, many Operatives began jumping thru.
but, then...the unthinkable happens.

the Space Bridge malfunctions, and the portal disappears.
sadly, NEST Monitors still show Operatives trapped on the Moonbase.

"WHAT HAPPENED!" exclaimed Rachel/Numbuh 362

Sam struggles with the controls.

"BLAST IT!, the portal has destabalized."

"Well, GET IT BACKL ONLINE YOUR STUPID BOY!" shouted Fanny/Numbuh 86

"I'm TRYING!" said Sam, angrily

after minutes of Failure, Sam banged the console angrily.
he finally gripped his Energon Key and turned it all the way...holding it in place.

"SAM, NO!" exclaimed Prowl

Blue Energy surged from the key.
at electros danced and sparked around the console...warning signals blared on the monitors.

"WARNING...WARNING...
POWER OVERLOAD IMMINANT!"

"SAM!" shouted Abby

Sam ignored her pleas, his mind set on getting the Space Bridge back online...NO MATTER WHAT.

"SA-!"

KA-BOOM!

the Space Bridge Console exploded in a blinding flash.
the blast was so powerful, it propelled Sam through the air...and SLAMMED his body into a metal wall.

"SAM!" shrieked Cree in terror

Sam slumped against the metal wall, his vision blurred.
he saw Cree, Sector V and Bluestreak run up to him...but, he could no longer hear their voices.

"abby...i'm sorry."

Sam finally passed out, the world going black around him.

[The Moon]

"Decepticons...WE ARE VICTORIOUS!"

Vinnie (now with protective shielding over his face) stood over the ruins of the now DESTROYED Moonbase.
nothing was left of the base, other than mangled up metal and pieces of debre that lay scattered EVERYWHERE.

and, of course...massive amounts of Dark Energon Crystals that grew enerywhere.

Vinnie stood before the Decepticon Forces (made of Robots and Teen Ninjas, alike)

"with the DESTRUCTION of the Kids Next Door Moonbase...the KND have been DEFEATED!
all that remains of them now are their pitiful Treehouses...which, we will make short work of."

one Decepticon spoke up.

"ahem..yes, of course.
but, now that yoy have destroyed those "Organic Protoforms" base...what do we do now?"

Vinnie smiled.

"I am VERY glad you asked, Dirge: I plan to establish a NEW base of operations here.
a new Headquarters for the "Human Decepticon Forces"...built over the ruins of my hated enemies."

"why here?" asked another Decepticon (named "Ramjet")

Vinnie just eyed him.

"to further serve as an EXAMPLE to the KND...that the DECEPTICONS are superior!
by destroying their greatest base of operations, and constructing My OWN over it's ruins."

"oh."

"and, Ramjet?"

Ramjet looked up at Vinnie...who shoots him with a shot from his Fusion Cannon.

"DON'T EVER ASK STUPID QUESTIONS, AGAIN!"

Ramjet groaned as he got up.

"ye-yes, sir..."

just then, Long Haul Drove up to Vinnie and Transformed.

"Lord Vinnie..."

"Yes, Long Haul?"

"I have radioed my fellow Constructicons to join us, to build your new base."

"Exellent."

"but, I have a question."

Vinnie eyed the Decepticon.

"what is it?"

"there are an awful lot of "bodies" still in the base.
what should I do with the remains of your slain enemies?"

Vinnie sneared.

"do whatever you want with them...they are worthless to me, ALWAYS WERE."

"yes, sir."

Long Haul lumbered off.
Vinnie then looked over the horizion and saw the Earth in a distance.

he grinned evily.

"Phase ONE is complete...now, for PHASE TWO."

[Detroit NEST Base]

Sam lay on a bed in the medical bay, wires connected to his body.
the monitors showed his pulse was steady, as was his Brainwave Activity.

Sector V, Cree, Rachel, Fanny and Prowl all stood by as Bluestreak checked him out.

"well?...is he o-okay?" asked Cree, feeling a little scared

Bluestreal made beeping noises to Cree...who just looked at Prowl, confused.

"he said that Sam only endured minor damages.
he has some fractured bones...but, nothing an Energon Repair Ray can't fix."

Bluestreak then summoned a gun-like device from his forearm.
he fired a white stream of energy at Sam, which appeared to be "welding" the cracks in his bones together.

at least, that's what his X-Rays were showing.

"impressive..." said Rachel, who was in awe at this alien technology

suddenly, Sam woke up.
he shot his eyes open and immediatly sat up.

"VINN-GAAHH!"

Sam flinched in pain.

"take it EASY..." began Prowl

"your still damaged."

Sam groaned as he held his sore arm.

"wha...what happened?"

Abby/Numbuh Five approached him.

"you overloaded the Space Bridge controls with your key...it blew up."

Sam thought a bit...then, remembered the explosion.
but, a more pressing thought was on his mind at the moment.

"the kids...the M-Moonbase."

everyone was silent.
Sam then looked concerned, near-hysterical.

"tell me everyone made it...PLEASE!"

Nigel Uno finally spoke.

"most of the Kids Next Door operatives made it back here, safely."

"MOST!" exclaimed Sam

nigel nodded, hiding his face.

"yes...i'm sorry.
but, there were still operatives trapped when-"

Sam was frozen, starting blanking into space with wide eyes.
he finally got out of the medical bed and walked forward, not making eye contact to anyone.

"sam?" said Abby, feeling worried

Sam finally stopped, his back still facing the others.
the kids heard his breathing hard, growling in his throat.

he finally yelled angrily, kicking some random technology down.
Sam finally fell to his knees, his head hung down at the ground.

Sam was DEFEATED.

"their all dead...all of them." said Sam, pain in his voice

"yeah...there are." began Fanny, angrily

"and, it's all YOUR FAULT, TEENAGER!" shouted Fanny, finally

"Fanny, enoug-"

"NO!, IT IS!
I bet HE is the one who supplied this "Vinnie" with the security codes that got those TEENAGERS into the base!"

"HE WASN'T!" shouted Kuki, in a "rare" angry tone

"then, WHO WAS!"

"IT WAS MY SISTER!" yelled Kuki, tears in her eyes

"What?" said Rachel, shocked

Kuki cried in Wally's chest (which, for some reason...he didn't object to)

"it's TRUE, Numbuh 362...Kuki's Sister, MUSHI betrayed us.
SHE has been working with Vinnie and those "Decepticons" from the start...Sam was trying to protect us." said Nigel

"alot of good I did..." said Sam, still feeling depressed

Abby approached him.

"what are you talking about, Sam!
you DID protect us!, you stopped Vinnie from destroying the Arctic Base, remember?"

"wait-wait...that was YOU!" exclaimed Rachel

Sam just scoffed.

"yeah...I stopped Vinnie from detonating his bomb and killing all those kids.
but, the Moon Base had MORE Kids in it...and, I failed to save them all."

"but-"

"i should of TRIED to stop him...i should of.
but, I worried about the portal...and, may have condemed all those kid sto death because of it."

"YOU CAN'T BLAME YOURSELF!...you did all you could." said Abby

Sam scoffed again.

"what a perfect euolgy to give all those parents whose "babies" will NEVER come home, again: "I did ALL I COULD."

"sam-"

Sam finally got up, his face still saddened.

"it was my responsibility...to protect and preserve life: but I failed, miserably.
and, if I couldn't save those kids...HOW can I be expected to protect all of you."

"but-"

"i give up."

Sam began to walk away.
Abby was in shock, she couldn't believe Sam was saying this.

"G-Give up?, YOU CAN'T GIVE UP!"

"i just did."

"BUT, YOU CAN'T!...WE NEED YOU!"

Sam stopped.
he then turned and looked at Abby.

"I'm sorry, Abigail...i'm not the hero I used to be.
maybe I WAS once...a long time ago...but, not, anymore."

Sam finally walked off, leaving the medical bay.

"sam..." said Abby, still in disbelief

Cree finally approached her sister.

"leave him ALONE, abby...he needs some time to himsel-"

Abby angrily jerked her arm away from Cree.

"what do YOU care, Cree!
Sam's a HERO!, he CARES about kids!"

Cree got angry.

"and, your saying I DON'T!"

Abby crossed her arms and huffed.

"WHO tried to send the Moon Base into the SUN!
WHO tried to use "Chicken Pox" against every kid in school!
WHO betrayed the Kids Next Door...and WILLINGLY joined Father and his Teen Ninjas!"

"Well, I-"

"The SAME Teen Ninjas that guys like VINNIE are apart of!"

Cree was silent, shocked at Abby's words Abby finally cried, tears visible in her eyes.

"why, cree!...why did you do it?
WHY DID YOU BETRAY US!...BETRAY ME!"

"I...i don't know." said Cree, tears in HER eyes

"i just don't-"

suddenly, a portal materialized in the Medical Bay.
everyone looked and gasped in shock, unsure what this was or if it was a "good thing"

"what is it?" said Rachel

"Don't know...looks like a portal of some kind." replied Nigel

Kuki gulped.

"you...you think it's those...d-d-decepticons!"

at that moment, a figured stepped thru the portal.
everyone stared at the strange figure...who look "familure"

it was an African-American Woman, somewhat middle-aged.
her hair had the same messy looking locks as Cree's, only shorter and a little GRAY.

the woman was wearing what looked like Commando Clothes.
only, they were Dirty, Raggy, torn-up a bit and littered with weapons.

the woman approached Cree and stared right at her.

"who...who are you?" said Cree, confused

the woman just smirked.

"I am YOU." said the woman, whose voice sounded like Cree's...only, "Grittier"


Author Note: Pay attention to Numbuh 362's Security Code...it means something (only KND Fans will get it)

anyway, this chapter shows just what happens when Decepticons start winning (and, how "Mad" Vinnie is)
